Abstract
The main scattering mechanisms governing the transport of electrons in PMMA in an energy domain ranging from the energy of the primary electron beam down to few hundreds of meV are identified. A quantitative Monte Carlo model for the emission of secondary electrons is developed to be applied for critical dimensions extraction from highresolution scanning electron microscopy SEM images. Selected results are presented, which demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed approach. © 2010 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers.File in questo prodotto:
